’
‘You've got her right’ I asked Thomas
‘Hmm ’ he nodded
‘okay’ I walked towards the guy with the sunglasses and guy , ‘ alright lead us down to wear we get to buy the stuffs’ .
‘Hahaha finally a man , sure sure follow me come on , I don't have All day you know.’ He blurted out
Instead of moving the girls stood rooted to the spot‘Let them go the the bus myself and her ( Pointed to Ashely) will stay behind and make payments .
‘Hmmm okay it's not like you can successfully excape from the lands,so why not’
‘Its okay everyone ?, Thomas take them to the bus , and wait , Ashley follow me ’ let's go make payments.
Thomas replied with a nod , led the way while the girls followed suit. Facing the guy in front ‘Now we can go '
Ashley was pretty much shaken her self , I comforted her by placing my right hand on her shoulder, massaging it gently , ‘ It's all right I am here’ I told her , she nodded like a hen eating feeds on the ground, repeated nodding..
We arrived at the basement where they stored live and frozen aquatic animals, dissected , chopped , some were just being being packed up in the cartoon and carried to the deep freezer, The room also consisted of a slaughter house by the left end of the room, the room also looked like market place filled with buyers but unlike the usual market places it had securities ready to blow your head if you try acting smart or don't pay up . ' pick the ones you want’ the guy said pointing to all directions.
‘Hey you over there come here , attend to them and make sure they pay or get your head blown southwards’He told the elderly woman who answered his call befor whistling as he went out back.
With the grandma smiles and careful steps she walked her way towards us .
“Good afternoon ma, do you have meats also ? ’
‘Good day sir , yes , all kinds are available’ come with me let me show you around we have practically all what you will need down to the rarest which cost * 3 the actually Prices.
She took us on a tour round the aquatic section, pointing and telling us the names of the ones we've never heard of.‘ Fantastic ma'm, can we take a look at the livestock's you have available?
‘isnt this turkey meat why does it seem so big?’ Ashley asked feeling puzzled.
‘ young's ones no no no What you see before you is ostrich meat , that's the drum stick over there ’ says the old woman as she points forward to the gigantic drumsticks.
‘What about that over there’ Asked Ashely again as she points in another nearby direction. ‘Oh oh oh that's An hippopotamus inner skin,so soft and extremely tastely when cooked with the right combination.
She went on and on introducing us to different kind of meats found outside , telling us the use of the animals bones and how the sell it for a befitting price.
‘Ashley this is when you speak’ I called out
‘Yea yeah ehm , shrimps, lobsters, Goat meat,beef, chicken, turkey,. mix them everything worth 5000$ thanks' she said
The waiting took 20 minutes , stacked in a wooden container with wheels the attached to the rear of our minibus, ‘ Thanks for your patronage ’ The guy with sunglasses and gun waved at us when we were about to enter the bus.
The trip back home or Rather to our rented house was a gloomy one, Thomas sat at the back with the girls as thier human pillow comforting them , his shirt full of snots.
We arrived up in the hills, Thomas had to take the girls inside and change his shirt, leaving Ella inside the bus , I parked the bus at the garage, got down, walked towards the door, opened it
The interior of the bus brightened up as I slid open the door, She laid there fast asleep ,what a beautiful sight to behold , so different from her bossy self, she looked like a harmless bunny, but her expression changed spontaneously, could be a smile now ,a frown later, a worried expression but she actually shed tears while sleeping.‘ Guess she has her own story’
Time to get going i said placing my right hand underneath her head And my left hand underneath her thighs lifting her up in the bridal style. pressed the lock button on the remote and headed inside ..
We were greeted by silence when we entered no one in the living room nor kitchen ,guess everyone went to bed early. Adjusted her position in my arms and climbed up the stairs to her room. Using my right leg as my temporary arm I opened the door , walked in ‘What a beautiful room , nice view from up here, she really picked the best room didn't she? ’
I placed her down on her bed , covered her with her duvea ,took another look at her before standing up.
‘Dont go , don't go , don't leave me all alone , stay with me don't You go’ She said from her dream state , what is she dreaming about? well who knows, turned my back towards her but as I was about to Take the first step a soft hand help mine , turned to look at her but she was still fast asleep hmmm what do I do now? ‘
looking at her reminding my of Richie, I wonder how he is doing without me ,hope he's still a good boy, I will talk to him later at night I said to myself.
Draged the little stool my the bed and sat down on it, took a good look at the room since I had nothing to do Then back to her face , now I get to see her perfect features featuring the heavenly immortals descending to mortal realm , graced by her presence brought peace to the soul of men , comfort to all who were in pain and smiles and wows to the ones with suicidal thoughts ,sleep crept in gradually, drawing me into it's realm to rest.
